European Toy Makers Lose Ground as War Shifts to America

New York Families Craft Dolls From Wood and Clay

A wartime shift in New York saw a family of six children and parents turning to doll making after the father lost work. They fashion heads, limbs, and bodies from wood and clay, finishing and painting faces, then assembling and clothing the dolls for sale. The piece notes diverse toy trades, European competition fading postwar, and a stubborn toy market while Christmas hope endures.
